Here is my recent 5512 cartel. Really disappointed as I was hoping to do a full 5512 build and now I find this case is totally wrong









Lol!!!!!
I can settle this easily.
Here is a pic of the latest version and damn if they didn't get the tropic dial spot on!!!! So get in line kids.
Also, I heard there is a reissue of Milsubs from R-factory for cheap that is supposed to look equally as good.
Cheers!

The post on RWG is fishy. Your Cartel looks like others I've seen. my pic is a rub on the RWG pic… "here's a nice rep, no?"

Here are my QC pics, I dont think they are to the level of the OP either, and much more like those of surgcmdr, however I dont think they look so bad. This is a 21j 5513 for Joshua. Looks like it has a bracelet marked 91350, anybody know if its a decent rep? And the bezel insert and pearl look decent as well, no?

The 5513 from Joshua is the only ones which the hands and face mat h cars the 1580 are off these are the worst in terms of not matching I have DRSD it's OK on matching but if keeping watch stock cartel no mode the 5513 21j is the best

93150 bracelets should have clasp with level holes on the side (eight holes at the same level). As your can see in your QC picture, the holes on your clasp are at different levels (a group of four high, and a group of four low) which is correct for the 93250, not 93150.

All Cartel bracelets have this flaw, and there aren't any decent 93150 alternatives out there.

I got a 1680 last week. I inquired with Marvelous Replicas there stock was out, but he was happy to order a cartel one for me, it was a good experience very fast.
